    Possible upgrade?
    I have a IBM Intellistation E Pro with Pentium III 128mb Ram 20 Gb Hard Drive running Windows 98SE. 933 Processor.

    I would like to upgrade to Windows Home Edition and would like to know if this machine as is will handle it without having 256 mb Ram.

    I have no interest in Burning anything and just use the System for surfing and e-mail mostly.

    Am I able to purchase Windows home Edition and erase 98SE and load the new version myself?

    What do you think.

    Tks.

    Dave Connor.

    In my opinion, it will be slower than syrup on a cold day.
    I have found that the workable minimum spec is a 500Mhz CPU with 256 Mb RAM.
    ANy less and it's amazingly slow.

    Win98SE is perfectly suited to the machines specs, save your money and stick with it.
